The Uighur people are of Turkish origin who migrated to Xinjiang China during China's Zhou Dynasty. There were considered as migrants and subsequently considered as Chinese. If the Uighur people want to claim a land to be exclusively theirs as a seperate people, then they have to go back to Turkey.

This is an very ungrateful woman. She got extremly rich thanks to the opening and reform policy of China in the late 1970s and early 1980s, and she gave birth to 11 kids due to the preferential policy to the ethnic minority by the government. Now she even went so far to worshhip the Janpany War Criminals. Everyone can see what a woman is really is

So Japan is meddling in China's internal affairs (again) by cozying up with the Uyghur separatists.

Japan should really be wiped off the map.

The Japanese attempt to split out Manchuria during the war ... when they came up with Manchukuo and put the Manchurian prince on the throne. The Japanese should be prevented from doing this. Stop buying Japanese stuff, Chinese people!

FACTS TALKS the rest is all propaganda wrote:

It is more than obvious the above statement is factual

But statement made by other opposing side where Historically completely wrong.

No statement can be made that Xinjiang was historically part of China.

With a documented history of at least 2,500 years, a succession of peoples and empires has vied for control

over all or parts of this territory. Before the 21st century, all or part of the region has been ruled, controlled,

influenced by the Tocharians, Yuezhi, Xiongnu Empire, Kushan etc..

since 1950, the People's Republic of China.

The first people lived in Xinjang were Central Asian mongoloid people and few thousand years ago European

migrants came in the Xinjang. According to J.P. Mallory and Victor H. Mair

So the first people where certainly not han

@FACTS TALKS There was no proper country 2500 years ago and borders were all varying as it was common for neighbors to conquer each other. And "han" is a diverse group of peoples - even genetically distinguishable amongst itself. Physically, I have met "han" with more western Asian features than others, some with stronger north Asiatic features, etc.

This is about the Uyghur separatists wanting to separate but have no basis to separate based on origin because Xinjiang consisted of multiple groups including "han", Kyrgyz, Kazakhs, etc. long before Uyghurs migrated largely to form a majority in Xinjiang. Not everyone in Xinjiang want a separate country for fear of instability and extremism spreading from neighboring countries. Japan is just playing my enemy's enemy is my friend game and have no genuine interest in Uyghurs.

Chinese government has always been trying to hide its inhuman policies that they`ve been implementing for over 60 years in Uighurs land. However, the truth has been told by this brave woman-Rabiya Kadeer, since she got out of Chinese territory in 2005,and landed her foot on the Home of the Brave. Since then, this forgotten part of the world, its people, and their voices were heard by the western countries. People began to realize that this peaceful nation who had and still have their wonderful culture which has enriched many nations society over the thousands of years, are ruled and treated inhumanly by the Red Evil Dragon.
As hard as it is to believe, Chinese governments brutal policies still getting worse and worse and worse.. As one of the biggest economic power of the world, Chinese government use its reputation to cover their Dark Blots and bloody truths. This may last a while, but it is for sure that this blood-thirsty Red empire will fall, like every other dictator fell in the past. And when that day comes, chinese people and other minorities who live under the shadow of red dragon will get thier freedom, democracy, and bright future.
